Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
No erythema or edema was observed in the rabbits during the 72 hour observation period.
Glycerol esters of rosin was considered to be not irritating to rabbit skin.
Executive summary:

The irritant effects on rabbit skin, was assessed for glyceryl rosinate. 3 New Zealand White Rabbits were subjected to a 4-h semi-occlusive patch test. 0.5 g test chemical was applied to intact skin, no vehicle was used but test chemical was moistened with distilled water. Animals were observed for up to 72 h

No erythema or edema was observed in the rabbits during the 72 hour observation period.

Glycerol esters of rosin was considered to be not irritating to rabbit skin.
